Donegal and meath both shocked on opening game. Kerry, dublin, Galway and Armagh all struggled on opening day out a bit of a pattern there. I expect Galway to be alot better against the rossies, as they will have to

Roscommon just targeted and went to town on the opposition kick out.
Bit of an understatement but im a small bit worried.

Replying To eoinog:  "Is there anything wrong with a Sligo supporter having an opinion.?
I wasn't negative towards the team or mgt.
I didn't slate any players or belittle anyone.
A few Galway supporters could take a leaf out of my book"
Well said. Nothing wrong with any supporter having an opinion on other counties Eoinòg. I don't think many Galway or other county supporters would think that. Separately, there's too many posters with multi accounts looking to get a reaction from people. I even think at this stage that some are replying to themselves.

Replying To endgame:  "Paddy Power have Galway as favourites for the Connacht Final. 8/13 on."
Paddy Power had Leitrim, 9/1 to beat Sligo and 80/1 to Beat Galway. Also had Mayo and Donegal long odds on to win at the weekend. Another so called "shock" is on the cards next weekend, just watch Cork....

Anyone know when the draw for round 1 of back door/qualifiers is taking place? Hopefully not before provincial finals like previous years where in theory the losing team may have a more appealing draw

Replying To eoinog:  "Would you not consider it a step backwards to include both Comer and Walsh in the first 15 when they haven't been consistently fit for an awful long time. Should they be treated more of a bonus rather than build a team plan around them ?"
Comer has a good bit to go yet so no for me other than coming on with a few minutes to go. Walsh looked very sharp but has been out for a good while also and I think we need him sharp at the business end of the game so I would bring him in after half time. Hernon (for Fitz) and Sean Kelly will start (for Mulkerrins most likely) and Shane McGrath (for O Conghaile) should start in my opinion. Other than that and hoping J McGrath is fit, it will be close enough to the same team as Leitrim. Strong looking bench with Walsh, Tierney, Comer, O Conghaile and O Flaherty
